Vacation recurring entry

You can enter a recurring entry for vacation and other absences. For example, if you want to take vacation every Friday over the next two months, you don’t need to enter 8 individual vacation requests; you can enter a recurring entry.

Create a recurring entry

To enter a recurring entry for vacation, sign in to Timebutler and open the input form for a vacation request (read here how to get to the input form for [Entering a vacation request(/absence-management/enter-absences/enter-an-absence/)). In the input form, enable the option “Create recurring entry”. Additional options for creating the recurring entry will then be displayed.

Delete recurring entries

Employee users and supervisors receive the option to undo the recurring entries—i.e., delete them—immediately after entering them. If you don’t choose this option, you can no longer delete the recurring entries as a whole; you can only delete each entry in the series individually.

Admins can delete entire series they created with one click via [Undo actions(/tips-and-tricks/settings-tips/undo-actions/). This option is available for a limited time after the recurring entries have been created. After that, even admins can only delete each entry in the series individually.
